Note: You will need sudo/root privileges to install Resolve.

Download DaVinci Resolve (either studio or the free version), unzip the archive and double-click the .run file to launch the installer.

You will also need to make sure that clinfo is installed so that Resolve can see your OpenCL device.

For Debian/Ubuntu:

sudo apt install -y clinfo

For RHEL/clones:

sudo dnf install -y clinfo

Blackmagic Studios has not updated the 18.x nor 19.x packages to properly support the latest Ubuntu and Debian versions, so there are a couple things you need to do differently.

First, when you install it you need to use the `SKIP_PACKAGES_CHECK=1` variable to bypass the packages check (they should be installed already, their names just changed):

SKIP_PACKAGES_CHECK=1 ./Downloads/DaVinci_Resolve_19.1.2_Linux/DaVinci_Resolve_19.1_Linux.run

Then run through the installation prompts as normal.

After installation, you will need to copy libglib-2.0 into the Resolve libraries folder:

sudo cp /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so.0 /opt/resolve/libs/

Then you need to move some old libraries out of the way that are incompatible with newer Linux releases:

cd /opt/resolve/libs
sudo mkdir not_used
sudo mv libgio* not_used
sudo mv libgmodule* not_used

Now you can run resolve and have fun!
